Zeenat Aman tags Feroz Khan for the word 'rizz' stands for charisma in 2023! Know the reason why?
Bollywood's living icon, Zeenat Aman is one of the most prolific actresses of her time who has outshone every bit of her caliber to stand on a starry position as she stands today. With some of the most enthralling contribution to the movie industry, the evergreen actress has also given some oozing on-screen chemistry with other actors, which also includes actor Feroz Khan. The actress travelled back to her 70's memory lane and opened up many alleyways spent with Feroz Khan.
On Thursday morning, Zeenat Ji has taken over her Instagram handle to reminise her 70's life, the phase where she began her Bollywood career through signing up Qurbani. Sharing a grunge retro pic on the gram, she started off while calling Feroz as an embodiment of the word 'Rizz' that signifies charming according to 2023 gen-z language. "I read somewhere that Oxford’s word for the year 2023 is 'rizz' - short for ‘charisma’. Well, if I’ve ever known anybody to have rizz, it was Feroz Khan," she wrote.
Taking her five and a half lakh followers through the golden days of the 70's, she also recalled the moment when she entered the industry. She stated, "It was the 70s, my star was on the rise, and he called me on the telephone to offer me a role in his upcoming production. It was a secondary part, and so I politely refused the offer. Feroz was incensed and let out a stream of expletives while I held the receiver away from my ear!" But it was later that period, when Feroz came up with a leading role for Zeenat, as said by the actress. "Many months later, he called again. This time he started his pitch by saying - "it’s the lead role so don’t reject it." And that’s how I joined the cast of Qurbani," she further continued.
Evergreen Zeenat Aman also spoke off Feroz's suavity and range of precison in the things he is devoted to. Remembering one of a moment from the set, she said it was one of my moment when she reached the sets an hour late, thus Feroz surely made sure to make her pay. She said, "I landed up one hour late to set. Feroz was glowering behind his camera, and before I could offer him my meagre excuse, he cut me down to size. “Begum, you’re late and you’re going to pay for the delay.” No argument, no scolding, but you can be sure that he docked my pay to pay the crew for that one hour delay."
Signing in off with her memoirs from 'Qurbani', she basked the charisma in the late actor. Said "Feroz was suave, charming and polished. He was a talented actor-director, and Qurbani remains one of my favourite projects to date. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this anecdote and I hope 2024 is off to a roaring start for you!"
